6sense vs. Cognism

I think it's more suited for people or the access that we have. Sales intelligence and the predictive model. It's more suited for people on the demand gen side, the actual iframe itself. Then sales intelligence is for our sales team. It makes sense for demand gen and ABM analysts have access to both, but truthfully, our source of truth and bread and butter is the predictive model.

In terms of giving "upfront" info about the data, Cognism is well suited. I've used Lusha and LeadIQ in the past, and they don't give insights on DNC as Cognism does. They also don't give a headsup on whether the phone number is direct, mobile, or office and the only way to find that out is through calling those phone numbers directly.

• It makes my job a lot easier in terms of sales is an art as well as a science. It provides that science and the methodology of understanding who is the best people for me to reach out to and at what time should I prioritize certain companies for Q4 versus immediate. It kind of helps balance with my book of who's worth engaging with and getting out in front of versus those that I can probably schedule something for down the line and continue to nurture.

• They give us a headsup if the phone number is direct, mobile, or HQ
• They advise us if the email is verified - that reduces our bounce rate.
• They also advise us if our prospect's number is in the DNC list

• The only thing that I can think of, and it's not something that I particularly find annoying, but I know that executives, when they do have pushback about the tool, the thing that I hear them say is that they want that ability to see not just how 6sense is impacting from an attribution standpoint, the sale, they want to see more broad attribution capabilities within the tool. I actually think that having a marketer's level knowledge of the technology, I think it probably could be accomplished. That's a possibility that I think would make it an even easier sell internally or externally.

• Data are not 100% accurate, which is normal for every data enrichment tool. But at least we could flag it to them so they could improve it.
• Sometimes, I'm having problems exporting info into SFDC.
• Wish I could also export the contacts directly to Outreach.

I rated 6Sense a 10 because it has become an indispensable tool for our sales and marketing teams. The platform’s ability to identify high-intent accounts and provide actionable insights has significantly improved our targeting and engagement strategies, resulting in better conversion rates and a more streamlined workflow. Its predictive capabilities give us a competitive edge by allowing us to reach prospects at the right time with personalized messaging. Additionally, 6Sense’s seamless integration with our existing tech stack and CRM makes it easy for our teams to collaborate and align on shared goals. The value it brings to our business development efforts ensures it remains a crucial part of our growth strategy.

The platform is pretty straightforward as far as creating new segments and what's available to do so. The launch of digital advertising has greatly improved in recent months which has been great for our digital team. Adding or removing users and updating integration points is pretty easy as well. Reporting has also been recently updated which makes reporting on usage and ROI much easier too.

Most of the time pages load quickly and the UX is great there are moments like every platform where it is laggy though

We hardly needed any support but in the initial days we got some had to contact support for the product understanding, the suppor t was prompt and they were very quick to resolve any issues. The support team is very helpful and gives a lot of importance to unresolved issues.

It was too fast, too complex, no one could follow along. If you miss a step, you're lost for the rest of the time and there is SO MUCH to learn and keep up with.

6sense sales team spent a lot more time with me building out a use case and example to take back to my team. I appreciated the support and felt confident in getting the help I needed to implement the tech.

• I would say prioritizing accounts that 6sense is telling us to do has increased our win rates, has increased our meeting rates, our SDRs, prioritizing six QA from 6sense has greatly increased the amount of meetings they've been able to book. Then from there, open opportunities. Almost all of our closed won opportunities had extensive outreach via marketing. That was because of our knowledge of them through 6sense.

• We were able to reach prospective customers through phone or email
• We save time not dialing office numbers, because Cognism gives us a heads up on that
• We don't annoy prospects who don't want unsolicited phone calls, since Cognism advise us if the number is in DNC
